Acceleration of Horton overland flow and erosion by footpaths in an upland agricultural watershed in northern Thailand

Through field rainfall simulation experiments in an upland mountainous watershed of northern Thailand, we have identified two phenomena that increase the potential for Horton overland flow (HOF) generation on agricultural lands. First, there appears to be a transition period of 12–18 months, extending from the time of abandonment until the formation of a dense vegetation layer capable of intercepting rainfall and ponding surface water, during which HOF generation is accelerated. Simulation data indicate these recently abandoned fields may have runoff coefficients (ROCs) as high as 40% during large seasonal storms with wet antecedent soil moisture conditions. In comparison, actively cultivated lands and advanced (>16–18 months) fallow fields, the land surfaces existing before and after the threshold period, have ROCs≤4%. Secondly, compacted path surfaces initiate HOF within agricultural fields, which have saturated hydraulic conductivity (K_s) values that are 100–200 mm h⁻¹ higher. In the study area, path/furrow networks, comprising 8–24% of field surface areas, are designed to provide walking access within fields and channel excess surface flow from the fields. Compared with hoed surfaces, path/furrows reduce the time to HOF generation by about 85% and have ROCs that are six times higher. Access paths have the lowest K_s values of all watershed surfaces, but conveyance efficiency of HOF generated on these surfaces is low. Even recently created field paths are capable of reducing runoff generation time by 40–90% and producing sixfold increases in ROCs. Collectively, the data suggest that agricultural erosion rates are accelerated during the 12–18-month threshold period following abandonment and during storms where path-generated HOF interacts with adjacent planting surfaces. Despite having periods of increased HOF generation, the total HOF contribution from agricultural fields to the basin stream hydrograph is similar in magnitude to that of unpaved roads, which occupy 95% less land area.     

长江三角洲城市群区域滨海湿地利用时空变化特征

应用遥感和地理信息系统技术,以研究区遥感影像为主要数据源,研究了1990～2000年和2000～2005年间长江三角洲城市群区域围海造地行为下滨海湿地利用的时空演变特征。围海造地在不同城市化发展时期分别为农业用地和建设用地扩张所需。以海岸线为基准,通过分别向陆地和向海洋方向进行滨海湿地分区,每个方向设立7个缓冲带,靠近海岸线的前6个缓冲带宽1km,第7个缓冲带宽10km。结果表明,1990～2000年期间,围海造地以农业用地扩张为主,其平均年扩张速率为48.9km2/a,明显大于建设用地的平均年扩张速率(28.2km2/a);而2000～2005年期间,建设用地成为围海造地的主要目的,建设用地平均年扩张速率大幅增大至91.8km2/a,而农业用地平均年扩张率仅为4.2km2/a。在空间分布上,1990～2000年期间,农业用地平均年扩张百分率最大值出现在距海岸线5km的陆地缓冲区;但在2000～2005年期间,各陆地缓冲区农业用地面积在减少,其平均年扩张百分率为-1.3%/a;而建设用地在各缓冲区的平均年扩张百分率由1990～2000年期间的0.62%/a增大为2000～2005年期间的2.66%/a。对长江三角洲滨海湿地土地流转驱动力的分析表明,城市化是建设用地扩张的重要驱动力;一些天然滨海湿地直接转变为建设用地,两个时期建设用地净扩张区域相同,即距海岸线1～3km和>6km陆地缓冲带;还有一些天然滨海湿地,如滩涂,被用于水产养殖,而转变为人工湿地,在1990～2000年期间,农业用地的扩张区域是距海岸线4～6km的陆地缓冲带,在2000～2005年期间,农业用地的扩张区域是1～3km的近海缓冲带。     

A high resolution record of storm-induced erosion from lake sediments,New Zealand

The sustainable management of erodible pastoral hill country is a major focus of land use research in New Zealand. A multi-disciplinary study, using a high resolution lake sedimentation record, is being conducted to determine the role that cyclonic storms and natural and human-induced vegetation changes play in the erosion history of a landslide-prone hill country watershed.Sediment cores from Lakes Tutira and Waikopiro in northern Hawke's Bay were analysed to construct the magnitude-frequency history of storm-induced erosion since European settlement. Pulses of sediment representing individual storms can be clearly identified and are correlated to a storm history derived from analysis of a 93 year daily rainfall record. Correlation and dating are confirmed by pollen and diatom analysis,¹³⁷Cs distribution, tephrochronology and reference to a well documented land use history. Annually laminated, organic rich deposits, which occur in the uppermost sediments and represent the annual decomposition of biogenic material associated with eutrophication, are also used to confirm the chronology.A high correlation was found between storm sediment thickness and total storm rainfall (R²=0.8). Although sediment producing storms (>150 mm) occur on a near annual basis, the two largest storms (>600 mm) contributed 54% of the total sediment thickness.The presence of well defined storm sediment pulses has enabled the lake storage component of a sediment budget to be calculated for Cyclone Bola (1988), the most recent and largest rainstorm on record. The integration of this budget with the storm-magnitude-frequency history will be used to develop watershed-based models to predict the impacts of land use changes and the erosion response to climate scenarios.This is the third paper in a series of papers published in this issue on high-resolution paleolimnology. These papers were presented at the Sixth International Palaeolimnological Symposium held 19–21 April, 1993 at the Australian National University, Canberra, Australia. Dr A. F. Lotter and Dr. M. Sturm served as guest editors for these papers.     

SEDIMENT RATING CURVES DEVELOPED ON STAGE AND SEASONAL MEANS IN DISCHARGE CLASSES FOR THE MELLAH WADI, ALGERIA

The focus of the present study was to estimate suspended sediment load from the Mellah catchment (550 km²) during storms. Suspended sediment rating curves were developed on data from a 23-year period. The regression technique of this paper involves a division of data into discharge-based classes, the mean concentrations and discharges of which are used to develop power regressions through log-transformation. Sediment rating curves were also developed on means of data grouped into seasons and stages. Sediment loads estimated by rating curves uncorrected for bias involved underestimations of down to 9% compared with loads from measured concentrations. Correction for bias reduced underestimations to a range from 0.79 to 3%. Rating curves divided into rising and falling stages had the lowest underestimation and were used to estimate load during periods without concentration measurements. During the 23-year study period, the mean annual suspended sediment yield was 373 TI km².
Sediment transport is dominated by winter storms accounting for 61% of the annual load. A high exponent 'b' of the power regression equations during the winter season confirms the intense geomorphic work by winter season storms caused by high intensity rainfall, low vegetation cover, and heavy machine activity in the fields.

以黄土高原地区227个县的资料为基础,运用逐步回归的方法,建立了年均沙尘暴日数与影响因子之间的多元回归方程。黄土高原地区沙尘暴的分布具有一定的地带性。从西北向东南,年降水量逐渐增加,气候由干旱、半干旱向半湿润过渡。地表物质由风成沙、沙黄土向典型黄土和粘黄土过渡,天然植被类型由干旱荒漠、干草原、森林草原、草原森林向落叶阔叶林过渡,自然地理因子的地带性分异导致了沙尘暴的频率按同一方向递减。建立的回归方程表明,地表物质的抗蚀性对沙尘暴的影响较大,年降水量次之,大风日数居第三。通过合理的人类活动增加地表的抗蚀性,可以减低沙尘暴的发生频率。     

The impact of land use on soil properties in a karst agricultural region of Southwest China:a case study of Xiaojiang watershed, Yunnan

Supported by RS and GIS, the land use change from 1982 to 2003 were analyzed and the impacts of land use changes on pH value, organic matter, total N, total P, total K, available N, available P, and available K in soil of Xiaojiang watershed, a typical karst agricultural region of Yunnan Province, Southwest China were assessed. The following aspects are concluded. (1) The total land use converted during the past 20 years in Xiaojiang watershed covers an area of 610.12 km2, of which 134.29 km2 of forestland was converted into cultivated land, and 210 km2 of unused land was converted into cultivated land. (2) The rapid growth of population and the economic development were the main driving forces of land use change. (3) With the change in land use, the soil properties have been changed significantly. The pH, organic matter, total N, total P, total K, available N, available P and available K in soil in 1982 were 6.3, 38.02 g kg-1, 1.86 g kg-1, 1.63 g kg-1, 10.94 g kg-1, 114.42 g kg-1, 11.65 mg kg-1 and 64.69 mg kg-1g, respectively; and those in 2003 were 6.73, 25.26 g kg-1, 1.41 g kg-1, 0.99 g kg-1, 12.6 g kg-1, 113.43 mg kg-1, 11.11 mg kg-1 and 151.59 mg kg-1, respectively. Pared samples t-test of the tested indices of soil properties indicate that those indices have changed significantly during the last 20 years. But the soil properties changed differently, due to the differences in land use change. (4) Also, with the change in land use and management measures of soil, the modifications in soil properties which developed from carbonate rocks were more sensitive than those in the soil developed from sandstone.

Assessment on environmental quality of heavy metals in agricultural soils of Chongming Island, Shanghai City

The environmental quality of heavy metals (Pb, Cd, Cr, As, Hg) in agricultural surface soil of Chongming Island was assessed by national, local and professional standards based on a large scale investigation, in which 28 samples from vegetable plots, 65 samples from paddy fields and 9 samples from watermelon fields were collected from whole island area. Results showed that the average concentration of Pb, Cd, Cr, As and Hg was 21.6 mg·kg-1 , 0.176 mg·kg-1, 69.4 mg·kg-1, 9.209 mg·kg-1 and 0.128 mg·kg-1, respectively. Compared with the background value of Shanghai City soil, except for Pb and Cr, all the other heavy metals average concentrations in Chongming Island agricultural surface soil exceeded their corresponding natural-background values. The concentrations of Cd, As and Hg were 33.0%, 1.2% and 26.3% higher than the background value of Shanghai City, respectively. In addition, inverse distance interpolation (IDW) tool of GIS was also applied to study the spatial variation of heavy metals. The results indicated that most of agricultural soil quality was good, and the ratio of ecological, good soil, certified soil and disqualified soil were 1.26%, 97.1%, 1.47% and 0.12%, respectively. About 10.1%, 85.7%, 27.0%, 55.4% and 55.2% soil samples exceeded the Pb, Cd, Cr, As and Hg background value of Shanghai City, respectively. Among these three land use type soils, vegetable soil was most seriously polluted by heavy metals, which is probably related to the over-application of pesticides. The annual deposition fluxes of Pb, Cd, As and Hg were 7736 μg·m-2·a-1, 208 μg·m-2·a-1, 2238 μg·m-2·a-1 and 52.8 μg·m-2·a-1, respectively. Crop straw burning was the important source of heavy metals of atmospheric deposition, and atmospheric deposition contributed a lot to heavy metals in agricultural soil in Chongming Island.     

TRMM3B42降水产品在鄱阳湖流域梅川江子流域的精度评价(英文)

在鄱阳湖流域的梅川江子流域,利用52个站点9年(2001-2005及2007-2010)的日降水数据对V6和V7两个版本的TRMM 3B42降水产品进行了精度评价。该评价针对多个时空尺度进行,包括栅格和流域两个空间尺度,日、月和年三个时间尺度。为避免尺度不匹配问题,本文利用泰森多边形方法将点尺度的站点观测数据转换到与TRMM数据相同的栅格尺度。评价结果表明,V6和V7两个版本的TRMM3B42降水产品差别较小,整体上均轻微高估了降水量(偏差均为0.04)。在日尺度,栅格和流域空间尺度上V6和V7TRMM3B42降水产品的精度均较差,相对均方根误差在135%-199%之间。因此,在该地区利用3B42数据进行日尺度的水文分析前需要对其进行校正。在月和年尺度,栅格和流域两个空间尺度上V6和V7两个版本的TRMM 3B42降水产品精度均较高,决定系数达到0.91-0.99,相对均方根误差在4%-23%之间。这表明TRMM 3B42降水产品在该地区月和年尺度的水文分析方面具有很好的应用前景。     

Extracting Holocene paleohydrology and paleoclimatology information from modern extreme flood events: An example from southern California

The extraction of paleohydrological and paleoclimatological information from a modern hydrological system, shown to represent unique and extreme hydroclimatological conditions, is illustrated by an example from the Mojave River drainage basin in southern California. The Mojave River allows only the most extreme floods to reach its terminal basin in the Silver Lake playa and to form ephemeral lakes. All the other floods are lost by transmission into the alluvial aquifer along its 200 km channel. This filtering out of regular floods by the river provides an essential tool in establishing a physical link between atmospheric and hydrologic conditions. We demonstrate such a link between anomalous, present-day atmospheric circulation patterns over the North Pacific Ocean, extreme storms in southern California that produced the heaviest precipitation on record, the largest floods of record in the Mojave River watershed, and ephemeral lakes in its terminal playa. This physical link determines the possible cause of the formations of perennial, short-duration, shallow lakes in Silver Lake playa during the late Holocene and characterizes the hydroclimatic conditions that prevailed during these lacustrine episodes. Hydrological simulations of this river and its filtering character demonstrate that these lakes could have formed only if the most extreme modern storms and floods were more frequent in at least an order of magnitude during specific time episodes. We conclude that such extreme hydroclimatic conditions occurred more frequent in past episodes during which the Holocene lakes formed. In turn, this conclusion indicates that the cause of these storms and floods, i.e. the anomalous atmospheric circulation pattern, must have been more frequent. This research outlines a way to extract information on Holocene climates in hydrologic settings that demonstrate a unique cause and effect relationship.     

土地利用/土地覆被变化对大盈江流域径流的影响

为揭示大盈江流域土地利用/土地覆被变化对径流变化的影响,基于SWAT(Soil and Water Assessment Tool)模型,通过设置不同情景,定量分析了土地利用类型变化对流域内径流的影响。结果显示:(1)SWAT模型在大盈江流域径流模拟中具有较好的适用性,率定期的模型参数R2、Ens分别达到0.68、066,验证期的模型参数R2、Ens分别达到0.69、0.67;(2)大盈江流域月均径流量与土地利用类型关系密切:把农业用地变成林地或者草地,径流量均会减少,把林地变成草地径流量则会增加,农、林、草3种土地利用类型中产流由强到弱依次为农业用地、草地、林地。(3)2006~2015年,大盈江流域土地利用类型变化主要为农业用地和林地转化为草地,这种转变导致流域的月均径流量略有增加,增加的径流量主要是由林地转化为草地所致,且林地转化为草地引起的径流增加量强于农业用地转化为草地引起的径流减少量。     

区际农业生态补偿:区域划分与补偿标准核算——基于虚拟耕地流动视角的考察

从虚拟耕地流动的视角构建区际农业生态补偿框架,并在此框架下开展区际农业生态补偿支付/受偿区域划分和补偿标准测算的研究。结果表明：① 区际农业生态补偿的基本原理是：利用虚拟耕地净流量（输入量与输出量的差额）指标划分区际农业生态补偿的支付/受偿区域。对于净流量为负的分室,通过虚拟耕地流动占用了其他区域的耕地资源,应该支付相应的生态补偿。对于净流量为正的分室,通过虚拟耕地流动被其他区域占用了耕地资源,应得到生态补偿。区际农业生态补偿额度应包含对农业生态环境保护和改善的投资成本以及占用农业资源使其牺牲的发展机会成本等方面,并由管理平台统一收缴和分发。② 2004年以后虚拟耕地流动格局基本上保持稳定,只有个别省市（甘肃和云南）由净流入转变为净流出,在空间上表现为“北耕南流”的格局。③ 受偿区域（15个省市）主要分布在东北地区、华北地区和西北地区;支付区域（16个省市）主要分布在东部沿海地区和西南地区。④ 研究期内年均总受偿额度为1472.58亿元,处于高受偿省份（黑龙江、吉林、内蒙古、河南）年均受偿额度都在150亿元以上。研究期内年均总支付额度为543.10亿元,其中,处于高支付区域的省份（浙江、广东、北京、福建）年均支付额度都在40亿元以上。

北京市不同土地利用类型的土壤砷含量特征

通过对北京市菜地、稻田、果园、绿化地、麦地以及自然土壤6种土地利用类型共500 个土壤样品的调查分析,探讨了不同土地利用方式对土壤砷积累的影响。与北京市土壤背景值相比,砷在土壤中均有不同程度的增加,累积现象比较普遍。在6种土地利用类型中,自然土壤的砷含量最低,最接近背景值;菜地和稻田的土壤砷含量的增加最为显著。以基线值为标准,北京市涉及土地利用的土壤砷含量总体超标率为1.8%;6种土地利用类型中,菜地、果园、麦地三种土壤砷含量的超标率分别为2.6%、2.7%、0.7%。土壤砷含量的平均值由高到低分别为:稻田>绿化地>菜地>果园>麦地>自然土壤。     

Annual floods in New England (USA) and Atlantic Canada: synoptic climatology and generating mechanisms

New England and Atlantic Canada are characterized by mixed flood regimes that reflect different storm types, antecedent land surface conditions, and flood seasonality. Mixed flood regimes are known to complicate flood risk analyses, yet the synoptic climatology and precipitation mechanisms that generate annual floods in this region have not been described in detail. We analyzed a set of long-term annual flood records at climate-sensitive stream gauges across the region and classified the synoptic climatology of each annual flood, quantitatively describing the precipitation mechanisms, and characterize flood seasonality. We find that annual floods here are dominantly generated by Great Lakes-sourced storms and Coastal lows, known locally as ‘nor’easters.’ Great Lakes storms tend to be associated with lower magnitude annual floods (<75th percentile) and Coastal lows are more clearly associated with higher magnitude events (>75th percentile). Tropical cyclones account for few of all annual floods, including extreme events, despite causing some of the region’s largest and most destructive floods. Late winter/early spring is when the greatest number of annual floods occur region wide, and rainfall is the dominant flood-producing mechanism. Rainfall in combination with snowmelt is also important. Both mechanisms are expected to be impacted by projected regional climate change. We find little evidence for associations between flood-producing synoptic storm types or precipitation mechanisms and large-scale atmospheric circulation indices or time periods, despite upward trends in New England annual flood magnitudes. To more completely investigate such associations, partial duration flood series that include more floods than just the largest of each year, and their associated synoptic climatologies and precipitation mechanisms, should be analyzed.     

雅鲁藏布江流域多源降水产品评估及其在水文模拟中的应用

论文对比分析了1980—2016年基于站点插值降水数据CMA(China Meteorological Administration)和APHRODITE(Asian Precipitation-Highly-Resolved Observational Data Integration Towards Evaluation)、卫星遥感降水数据PERSIANN-CDR(Precipitation Estimation from Remotely Sensed Information using Artificial Neural Network-Climate Data Record)和GPM(Global Precipitation Measurement)、大气再分析数据GLDAS(Global Land Data Assimilation System)以及区域气候模式输出数据HAR(High Asia Refined analysis)在雅鲁藏布江7个子流域的降水时空描述,利用国家气象站点数据对各套降水数据进行单点验证,并以这6套降水数据驱动VIC(Variable Infiltration Capacity)大尺度陆面水文模型反向评估了各套降水产品在雅鲁藏布江各子流域径流模拟中的应用潜力。结果表明：① PERSIANN-CDR和GLDAS年均降水量最高(770~790 mm),其次是HAR和GPM(650~660 mm),CMA和APHRODITE年均降水量最低(460~500 mm)。除GPM外,其他降水产品在各子流域都能表现季风流域的降水特征,约70%~90%的年降水量集中在6—9月份。② 除PERSIANN-CDR和GLDAS外,其他降水产品皆捕捉到流域降水自东南向西北递减的空间分布特征。其中,HAR数据空间分辨率最高,表现出更详细的流域内部降水空间分布特征。③ 与对应网格内的国家气象站降水数据对比显示,APHRODITE、GPM和HAR降水整体低估(低估10%~30%),且严重低估的站点主要集中在下游(低估40%~120%)。PERSIANN-CDR和GLDAS整体表现为高估上游流域站点降水(高估28%~60%),但低估下游流域站点降水(低估11%~21%)。④ 在流域径流模拟上,当前的6套降水产品在精度或时段上仍无法满足水文模型模拟的需求。⑤ 通过水文模型反向评估,6套降水产品中区域气候模式输出的HAR在流域平均降水量和季节分配上更合理。     

气候变化和人类活动对白洋淀上游水源区径流的影响

白洋淀是华北平原最大的湖泊湿地,对维持华北平原生态平衡具有极其重要的作用。近年来,白洋淀流域水源减少已经引起了严重的生态环境问题,本文以唐河上游流域为例,根据流域内1960-2008 年水文气象数据,采用气候弹性系数和水文模拟方法,研究了气候变化和人类活动对白洋淀上游水源区径流量的影响。结果表明：年径流下降趋势显著,下降速率为1.7 mm/a,且径流在1980 年前后发生了突变;气候变化对唐河上游流域径流减少的贡献率为38%~40%,人类活动对径流的减少起主导作用,为60%~62%。为维持白洋淀的生态功能,必须保证一定的最小生态需水量,开展湿地生态用水调度与监管。
